62 linux内核里基于GPIO口的SPI控制器驱动

当SOC里的spi控制器不稳定，或者spi控制器不够用时，可以基于GPIO口扩展出SPI控制器.
在Linux内核里已提供了相应的代码，是一个平台驱动，只需写平台设备描述相关资源即可.

平台数据所用的类型
"include/linux/spi/spi_gpio.h"
struct spi_gpio_platform_data {
    unsigned    sck; // SCL所用的IO口　
    unsigned    mosi; // MOSI用的IO口
    unsigned    miso; // MISO用的IO口

    u16     num_chipselect; //支持多少个spi设备
};

///
例如把 PA7, PA8, PA9分别作为SPI控制器的SCL, MOSI, MISO
